BAGHDAD (Reuters) - A mortar attack on a market in the restive town of Baquba, northeast of Baghdad, killed eight Iraqis, the U.S. military said on Friday.

A U.S. Army spokesman said it was not known who mounted the attack on Thursday evening. Baquba lies in the "Sunni triangle" region, a focal point for attacks on U.S. forces and support for ousted leader Saddam Hussein.

The spokesman said no U.S. soldiers were hurt in the attack. Since May 1, 79 U.S. soldiers have been killed in guerrilla attacks in Iraq.
